Destination specialist Discova will open its first lounge in Ngurah Rai International Airport, Bali, Indonesia on July 1, becoming the only DMC to offer such a facility.
An agreement with the airport will allow Discova to operate the lounge until 2027, with potential to extend after.
Peter Christiansen, regional manager for Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Laos, said: “Ever since Discova opened in Bali seven years ago, we have wanted to improve the way in which visitors here are welcomed, to immediately immerse them in the warm and friendly atmosphere that has made the island so famous and loved. We want to make it memorable right from the get-go, and offer a completely smooth and stress-free arrival experience.”
Upon arrival, guests can enjoy a drink and chilled towel at the lounge. The driver or guide will meet and escort them to the private parking area and drive them to their accommodation.
Discova is also working with Cross Hotels & Resorts to allow guests to complete hotel check-ins at the lounge itself.
